Lance writhed on the pavement, his hands clawing at Amelia’s boot. He tried desperately to dislodge the crushing weight on his face.

Two Stone family guards rushed forward immediately. They slammed their boots down onto Lance’s

wrists, pinning him flat against the concrete. He howled in pain, unable to move an inch.

Amelia leaned down, her eyes flashing with cold amusement. Her right hand shifted. The delicate fingers

elongated, morphing into the sharp, lethal claws of a wolf. She dragged the tip of a claw slowly down his cheek, leaving a thin line of red.

“By the time Griffin finds you,” Amelia whispered, her voice like ice, “you will be nothing but useless debris.”

Lance trembled, the cold steel of her threat sinking into his bones.

“But you make a good point,” Amelia mused, retracting her claw slightly. “If I keep you here at the Stone house, Griffin might come knocking with the police. I don’t want to deal with kidnapping charges on my

own property.”

She lifted her foot from his bruised face.

“Put him in the trunk of my car,” Amelia ordered the guards, her tone casual. “I need to find a more suitable

place to entertain our guest.”

The guards nodded instantly. They grabbed Lance by his arms and legs, hoisting him into the air like a

sack of potatoes.

Lance began to thrash violently as they dragged him toward the vehicle.

“You’re dead, Amelia!” he screamed, spitting blood. “Griffin will tear you into pieces! He won’t even leave a

grave for you!”

His curses echoed through the quiet morning air, vile and loud.

Just then, the front door of the villa flew open. Molly, the family’s elderly housekeeper, came running out.

She held a dirty dusting rag in her hand, her face pinched with worry.

“Miss Amelia!” Molly called out, panting slightly. “He is making too much noise. The neighbors might

misunderstand. Should I plug his mouth?”

Amelia blinked, then burst into a genuine laugh.

“That is an excellent idea, Molly,” she said, taking the rag. “Thank you.”

Amelia turned back to the entrance where Jaxon and Seraphina stood. They looked concerned, watching

the chaotic scene.

“Go back inside,” Amelia said softly to them. “There is nothing to worry about. I will handle the trash.”

Seraphina looked at her daughter’s straight back. The worry in her chest evaporated. She realized she had been anxious for nothing. Amelia had never been fooled by Lance’s act, not even for a second. She was in complete control.

Amelia walked over to the car. The guards had forced the trunk open. Lance was still shouting

obscenities, his eyes burning with hatred.

“Save your energy,” Amelia said coldly.

She shoved the dirty rag deep into his mouth, cutting off his scream mid–note. Lance gagged, his eyes

bulging.

“You’ll need it for where you’re going,” she mocked.

She slammed the trunk shut, muffling his muffled protests. Pulling out her phone, she sent a quick location

pin to Silas. She would hand this package over to him halfway to the city. Silas knew exactly how to make

people disappear without a trace.

Amelia got into the driver’s seat and sped away toward the office.

Thirty minutes later, Amelia stepped into Starlight Entertainment. The office was buzzing with energy.

Anya, her secretary, rushed up to greet her, clutching a tablet. Her eyes were wide with admiration.

“Miss Stone, you are incredible,” Anya gushed. “The way you got Zoey to cooperate is genius. The public

opinion has completely shifted. And those rival companies trying to piggyback on the controversy? They just tripped over themselves.”

Amelia raised an eyebrow, a small smile playing on her lips. “Since when did your mouth get so sweet,

Anya?”

Anya blushed, stammering a bit.

Amelia’s expression turned serious. “Don’t misunderstand one thing, though. Zoey hasn’t forgiven Wayne.

This is a strategic partnership, not a reunion.”

Anya looked confused but nodded quickly. Seeing Amelia already sitting at her desk and opening files, she

quietly retreated from the room.

Amelia picked up her phone and dialed Zoey’s number.

“The article is ready,” Amelia said without preamble. “But I need to warn you again. Once the truth is out, people will call you a kept woman. The stigma of being a mistress to a powerful figure will stick.”

There was a moment of silence on the other end.

“I know,” Zoey’s voice came through, steady and resolved. “But I can’t let Wayne carry the name of a cheater anymore. He destroyed his reputation to protect me. It’s my turn to take the hit.”

“Alright,” Amelia said. “Get ready.”

She hung up and tapped the ‘publish‘ button on her screen.

A detailed, lengthy article appeared on the official Starlight account. It laid bare the entire timeline of Zoey and Wayne’s relationship. It didn’t shy away from the gritty details. It exposed how a powerful figure had intervened, using threats against Wayne’s life to force Zoey into submission.

The internet exploded instantly.

Forums and social media platforms lit up with speculation. Everyone was asking the same question: Who was the man behind the scenes?
